Tony, staring at Bucky, who is holding a child: What the fuck is that?

Bucky: It’s a child.

Tony: Why do you have a child?

Bucky: I didn’t think I’d need to have that talk with you, Stark.

Tony: You only get with Steve. How do you have a child?!

It occurred to me just after I posted my last poll that polls serve a very interesting second purpose, on top of causing fights over food choices and determining the best blorbo. The little "67 votes" marker is perhaps the most accurate look at how many people have seen any given post, and it is always far bigger than the number of notes! A poll with two reblogs might have fifty votes! There's so many people on this website, it's amazing!

So I want to try something. An experiment, if you will, to see how many people actually see a given post. For science. And for the little gremlin in me who likes experiments and numbers and statistics and wants new experiments and numbers and statistics to play with.

Will you participate in my experiment?

Yes

No

I refuse to be fooled by catch-all poll questions

I took some of my dog’s calming treats as an experiment (don’t try this at home) let’s see what happens in 30 minutes

Thinking about Aquaponics!

Sorry im about to get technical and might not make much sense but i need to rave about this for a moment.

I've been thinking about Aquaponics as a sustainable gardening technique since my new garden hates me. I has a set up idea uwu

I want to use the media bed ebb and flow style (box full of rocks that fills with water then drains out perodically) as a biofilter (home for beneficial bacteria that turn fish waste into nutrition for the plants.) and NRT Nutrition river technique (the pipes half full of water) (no not NFT Nutrition film technique) to basically make a Kratky (mostly submerged roots system) that gets water changes from the bell siphon in the media bed.

I'm not sure this will work tho. mostly cuz I'm wondering if a botton drain that uses gravity to equalize the two tanks, could work with a bell siphon to make an electric free set up or not, idk if the bell siphon will be powerfull enough to reach the top of the pipes and idk if the bottom drain will work along side the bell siphon. Maybe I'm just stupid for thinking this could work, but it would be super cool if it did XDD

I could just add a pump and/or a sump tank but this would be way cooler.

So remember in the beginning of the extended edition of Avatar where Jake is watching the news and it's talking about the Bengal Tiger being brought back from extinction?

That just happened, but with Dire Wolfs????

The Return of the Dire Wolf

Colossal Biosciences has genetically engineered the first dire wolf to live in over 10,000 years. Here's what that means for other extinct s
